Branson, MO '08

Branson is our number one requested destination by LEEP participants and we can't blame them, there is something for everyone in Branson! The group went to numerous shows including "Broadway" which showcased numerous famous plays from Broadway, and "The Legends in Concert" which had impersonators of famous musicians such as Buddy Holly, Marilyn Monroe, the Blues Brothers, and even Elvis. Another famous attraction that we did was riding the "Duck Boats". They drive on land and then turn into boats on the water. Some of our travelers even got to drive and quack their duck whistles which was a highlight for many. The group then went to the Silver Dollar City where they snacked on carnival food and shopped for souvenirs. Another famous stop that they made was a trip to the "Chuck Wagon Dinner Show". While there they ate an incredible display of food, enjoyed the "Sons of the Pioneers" western band, and saw a lumberjack show. On their last full day they went to the Brett Family Singers and were treated like celebrities with front row seats and back stage passes to meet all the singers. In the evening the group went to the Dixie Stampede variety show which featured entertainers who juggled fire and spun 12 plates at once. The main show included horses, songs, and even a friendly competition between the two sides of the arena. This vacation was jammed packed with numerous shows, incredible meals, and shopping. No wonder it is everyone's favorite!
